Auger and Impeller Inspection: Regularly inspect the auger blades and impeller for damage, wear, or bending. Replace worn or damaged parts promptly to maintain optimal snow throwing performance.
Shear Pin Replacement: Always use the correct shear pins specified for the ST1028 model. Using incorrect shear pins can damage the auger gearbox. Keep a supply of replacement shear pins on hand.
Belt Tension Check: Check the tension of the auger and drive belts periodically. Loose belts can cause slippage and reduced performance. Adjust or replace belts as needed.
Fuel Stabilizer: Add fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank before storing the snow blower for the off-season to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues.
